About Lester Fun Run 2026
Our family-friendly 1 mile run/walk and 5k race event is one of two flagship fundraising initiatives for the Lester PTA. Over 35% of our programming budget is generated by the Fun Run and all of its surrounding activities (Experiences, Raffles, Silent Auctions & More)!
The goal for this year’s Fun Run is to raise $25,000 – which is reinvested into the PTA's programs and activities that benefit all Lester students!
Please Note:
- If you want to run both the 1mile and the 5K, you must register for each race individually. You will receive a separate timing bib for each race.
